๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine's population has dropped 45% since independence โ€” from 52 million to around 29 million living on Kyiv-controlled territory, - RFE/RL

Nearly 7 million are refugees abroad, and the number wanting to return has fallen below 50% for the first time.

The country loses an estimated 100,000-150,000 people monthly to long-term emigration โ€” far more than battlefield casualties.

Birth rates have hit a record low of 0.9 children per woman, with deaths nearly three times higher than births.

Demographer: There will never be 52 million of us again. We need to plan around 30 million.

The ballistic threat from Crimea is likely due to Russian S-300 air defence activity against Ukrainian drones in the Rozdolne area.

The Tu-22m3s are likely conducting another training mission.
